"Look at me beating anorexia" I got chills and started to cry. I didn't know how much I needed to see this. I am 25 years post being hospitalized and almost dying from anorexia. I didn't realize that I am still not completely free. I've come sooo far and I thought I was free but I think I still make rules for myself that I don't even realize! This video really inspires me to challenge myself even more! God bless you and keep on healing and challenging yourself!
Hey @LisaHooper... me too! Same timeline as you, and thanks to young'uns like Ro and others on youtube, I'm just now facing the fact that I have lots of restrictive rules still in place with food, even after all this time, and restrictive rules blending into other parts of life too. I have been feeling pretty dissatisfied lately, and here's hoping that working to allow more things into my life might fix that. Strength and courage your way!
I cannot emphasise these words enough, but: I am SO proud of you. I have never felt so emotional or been so genuinely inspired by someone I’ve never met, but RO…you are AMAZING! Well done you❤️
I'm wondering if you could highlight the difference between being "proud" of someone and being inspired and motivated. You are an intelligent young woman and I think it's important that social media plays a part in educating younger watchers ... I'm also a long term anorexia / bulimia chooser or sufferer of living ( I don't know now, I'm 48, eating differently since 12 ) Being proud of someone means they have been involved in whatever the outcome is..I'm sorry, despite my eating habits and hospital...I became a secondary teacher and perhaps that is bugging me. I'm fond of English sayings and grammar. I find it demeaning when someone I don't know and has nothing to do with me tells me They Are Proud Of Me. and that's how it should be. Could you imagine all these people taking personal pride for your success?. Grammar needs to be updated because it's looking cringey.
@@eddie6184 I think I understand what you are saying and I can only apologise if my comment caused anyone any offence or came off as patronising at all as that was certainly not my intent. Perhaps my choice of wording was poor and instead I should’ve used the word ‘pleased’…I have so much admiration for Ro and that is what I was trying to convey. Thank you for bringing this to my attention, I will keep this in mind in the future!
Hey, Ro! I’m a personal trainer and diet coach (10 years exp) and I somehow got your channel recommended to me. I have worked with clients who were recovering from EDs and I have watched every single one of your videos. I absolutely love your content. I know I don’t know you, but I am very proud of you. You’re a very likeable and responsible youtuber and (this almost never happens) I actually completely agree with everything you are saying. If anyone is reading this, RO GIVES LEGIT ADVICE. Everything has a place in a balanced diet, but what a “balanced diet” is can be different depending on what state you are in! I absolutely support food freedom and I wish a lot more people in my field did too.
My daughter was born late December 2020, right as you started your journey. Every time you mention how long you’ve been at this I remember that you two are the same age. One started for the first time, another started having left anorexia behind. I am rooting so hard for you. Nourish, nurture, repeat 💛💛💛💛💛
I just watched this and then went to get a banana from the kitchen- one of my biggest fear foods. Thankyou so much, I forgot how much I loved bananas! My dad and grandfather cried when they saw me💖
@@RoMitchell thankyou! Your chanel has been a massive part in getting over my really restrictive ways with food. Thankyou so much! And I'm so happy you're happier with your relationship with food. You're such an inspiration💖
Honestly quick shoutout to your best friend that went with you to nandos, loved the comments, seems like a really healthy and helpful relationship you two have!! That’s amazing and important, I am so happy for you 😊 gonna continue watching the video now :)
Your dad saying "you go girl" to hype you up for the garlic bread made my day. You are absolutely smashing it, Ro!! You have more and more life and hapiness in you in every video. You are awesome xx
I’m 6 months into my recovery and you helped kickstart it ! Feeling not totally alone in this is something I’m so grateful for! You are phenomenal and seeing your progress and where you are now from where you started is just incredible to see! Keep going girl don’t stop!! Big hugs and all the love !! ✨💕💗💖⚡️xxx
hey ro, i've been in anorexia recovery for about 3 months, and you helped me start. you made me feel like it wasn't impossible and there was a way out of my pain, even if it's so so difficult. i'm doing really good in recovery now, and i've faced so many fears this week because it was my birthday, but i just kept telling myself that the food i was eating was not only fuel, but also memories with the people i love. thank you so much for inspiring me and so many others, i'm so proud of us :)
When Ro said “oh my god, where have I been” And that’s how I’ve been feeling the past few weeks, since my recovery been going really well and I see all the things I’ve been missing🥺
hey ro, i just wanted to thank you for everything you are doing, i am currently in the hospital trying to recover and your videos are helping me so so much during this hard time. I am so proud and happy to see how far you’ve come! xx
Garlic bread is up there on my top 10 fear foods & when you took that first bite I honestly screamed out loud with pure joy for you! You’re absolutely bossing it Ro 🥰 Each video you post keeps reminding me that if you can recover from an ED then so can I! x
This made me actually confront and realize that a lot of the things I say I don’t like are actually just fear foods that I’m avoiding, so now I’m inspired to try things again and break the fear ❤️
Ro you are so incredibly strong - I cant begin to describe how proud I am of you!!! You've inspired me and many others to keep pushing in recovery and showing that its possible to heal
I've had such a tough day - I had a lateral flow come back positive and I just had a really hard FBT session over Zoom but my heart feels a little warmer watching your new vid
Just wanted to thank you, because you were the first recovery UA-camr I watched, and you introduced me to the concept of recovery and started the journey of believing I could do it, too. Thank you for being that representation. Here's to almost 2 months in !!
I've been following you since your first video, and it was actually during the hardest part of my anorexia, and even if now im still struggling with it, you inspire me so much and it makes me so happy to see you thriving. Somehow it comforts me and im so proud of you
i gained the weight i lost last december. and since then i havent been able to leave calorie counting and food rules behind. you are my constant “your anxious. watch a ro video and calm down” you have made a safe space for me that as someone who never experienced support other than “just eat it” comes to every single time. you make me believe in myself. im so grateful for you ❤️
Been waiting for this one, So proud of you! U have been my biggest inspiration in recovery and the one who showed me real recovery is possible! Don’t think u know how much you have helped me and so many others! I have order a T-shirt can’t wait for it to come got desert dusk love that colour! Sending lots of love 💛
watching this makes me feel so incredibly happy and proud of you!! i'm actually tearing up right now - your videos make me feel so happy and keep me going in my recovery 🤍 i faced some massive fear foods this week and actually managed to enjoy it. i'm getting my life back and it's so amazing to see you getting it back too. sending you so much love
Ro, I don't struggle with an ED, and I cannot imagine how hard it is.. but I do really struggle with some other mental health issues - and so many of your videos have inspired me so much, moved me to tears and brought me such comfort. You demonstrated the strength to overcome emotions and mental thought patterns that are truly debilitating and painful, you took back control of your own life and thoughts - and that is soo hard but you did it, and also managed to help so many others along the way!! You are so strong and you make such a difference in this world. You have truly truly TRULY helped me on my road to recovery, thank you
I’ve been having a rough few weeks of my eating, I just haven’t been giving myself the nourishment I deserve. I decided today that I’m going to change that, your videos always help me break negative cycles and thoughts. Thank you for uploading such a personal journey, it makes me happy to see you doing so well!!
watching this while eating my dinner because today was quite bad so my ED is rearing it's ugly head- i'm three weeks all-in recovery (as of tomorrow !!) and although it's so scary and incredibly difficult, you inspire me to keep going daily. i'm so proud of how far you've come, i can't wait to someday be there myself :-)
Im so so proud of u! I've been following you since the first video and I just want to thank you for everything you did. you actually saved me. like literally saved me. you made me belive it's possible. I'm from poland, so we dont have hospitals only for people with eds. I was in the mental hospital and we didn't have our phones or computers, but what we did have was a computer for everyone where we could watch youtube. I rewatched all of your videos and waited for every new one. now I'm so so much better, I learned a lot and I can say now I'm strong. I never thought I will ever be as strong as u, but look at us! like once again thank you beautiful, I love you
Girl, I’ve been “recovered” for 10 years now and I just barely ate a donut for the first time in 14 years last month. Recovery is TOUGH and you get so used to living with fear foods that you’re just not conscious of them after a while. Loved this video!
My biggest struggle while recovering is not compensating and not thinking of the nutritional value of things. Im always thinking of eating the things that will keep me full for longer and when I eat something “extra” I immediately think of compensating. Your such an inspiration and a positive force in my recovery and life so I want to thank you for being so strong and sharing all of this.
31:12 minutes full of joy thank you for uploading and helping me with my own Ed. I am struggling really hard right now but seeing that you are able to eat and recover makes me think that I can too. I am also really proud of you for facing your fear foods and btw you look amazing (not that you looked any less amazing before) 🌸💜
So proud of you and watched your journey from the beginning! It’s helped me so much watching this as I’m in my first month of recovery and most days find really hard as the meal plan has now increased to 3x meals 3x snacks but I’m doing it through all the tears, guilt and shame and aiming for that wonderful food freedom I’ve not had since my early teens(I’m now 53!) so you young ones are in the best place possible to start recovery now(I hope that doesn’t sound patronising!) I just mean there’s so much more help now than there used to be and don’t be like me and waste so many years in chains to a disorder that robs you of real life! Well done Ro, you beautiful inspirational Queen! ♥️♥️
you are such an inspiration, i’m currently making the decision to actively recover after hitting rock bottom - life is scary right now but hoping to follow in your footsteps 💓
Your mums comment during your pizza diner, where she said she had been waiting for this moment for many years, made me cry😢. So proud of you! And this is going all in, you are showing us you're all in, all in doesn't mean you get a pizza on the first day of recovery. Doesn't matter that it took you some time, you are doing it now!
i've been following your journey since your second, maybe third video. even tho i don't know you as a person, i can still see how your mindset has changed and how stronger you are in overcoming your fears. it's a strange feeling, i haven't even spoken to you once in my entire life, but i feel sooo proud of you. i just-bxnajsksi
Hi Ro!! I actually don't have anorexia, but a binging problem and struggle with self-image a lot. I started a recovery journey two months ago with a nutritionist because I was having horrible anxiety due to my habits and also was 25 kilos over my healthy weight, lost my period and had horrible skin. I know is not the same as anorexia, but mentally and physically it can get pretty similar. I've been watching your videos for months now, they gave me determination and strength to tell my parents about it, and now, I'm on my 4 medical revision, happy to say I'm getting there!! My body feels completely different, I don't feel like collapsing anymore, people say my eyes are brighter too :) !! I stopped self-sabotaging. I relate so much to your videos, I feel like I'm not the only one getting over an ED, and is extremely comforting. Thank you so much, and I'm so happy you are doing so great, good for you!! Everyone that is struggling right now, you will get over this!!
from watching your first videos until now, you have come such a long way. You’re doing AMAZING. You’re glowing and you just look so alive and happy. I am just a stranger on the internet but I am very proud of you!!
I love the fact that I'm following along with your journey from the very start. You've become the beautiful person you are. You're Glowin, literally. You laugh again. It makes me so happy seeing you like this. I love you ro
What I love about your journey, and the progress you made throughout the videos, is that in every video your personality is more and more shining and present! I mean, in the beginning I was like wow, such a beautiful girl. And now I am like WOOOOOOOWWWWWWW she is sooooo sooo sooo amazing!
I’m not usually a person to comment on looks as a compliment, but I have to say your hair looks absolutely beautiful, it looks so thick! These videos make me so emotional, as someone who has had a very up and down relationship with food for years they give me the reminders I sometimes need. You’re an inspiration and I’m so happy for you that you’re gaining this freedom back for yourself
This is so inspiring thank you so much. I suffer from an ed and I was on the brink of relapse tonight because i had a big dinner and the guilt came flooding back, but I went on youtube to try and distract myself and saw one of your videos. And I started watching more and now I'm crying a little, because you are so so brave and I am so proud of you and you inspire me every day to challenge myself more. Watching your recovery journey and to see you happier than before is amazing and I'm so happy for you! Go Ro
You are SO mentally strong, like seriously, you have forced yourself to face so many fears and you've just done it and wouldn't allow yourself to make excuses. I just can't comprehend how strong you are ❤️❤️
i remember the first time i had garlic bread in my recovery, its so sad that an illness could take flavours away from me that i always had enjoyed. when my anorexia started, it was my relying on another behaviour as i way trying to stop another, to cope.. so i totally get the "anorexia said i couldn't have it because it made me happy when i was younger". anyway, so so proud of you girl, you've been helping me since my day one, literally actually, i started my recovery around when your first video came out so you've been with me the whole time :) i CANNOT emphasise the amount of love i have for you, it makes me emotional thinking of the fact i don't actually personally know you x one more thing, just thank you. thank you for everything, you have done so much for so many people Ro xxx
Throughout all of my recovery, your videos have been pushing me to carry on persevering. You are honestly the most genuinely amazing person Ro and I can't wait for you to reach 1 year! Recovery is hard, but I am so proud of how far you have come and can't wait to see the day you can say "I am fully recovered"
Ro! You're glowing! Watching you overcome your fears and experience foods you haven't had in so long is inspiring. Your reactions are so genuine and sweet! It's like the first time tasting a new food all over again. Thank you for taking us on this journey with you
ro, i’m so insanely proud of you. i can’t even stress it enough. sometimes when i’m watching, i genuinely feel tears in my eyes because you’ve come SO FAR and you’re proving that it’s NOT impossible. watching your videos is what snapped me out of my own head and made me choose myself, made me choose recovery. you’ve kept me going even on my worst days. you’re truly an inspiration. thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
You’re so amazing Ro!! I’ve been unwell for ten years. I just turned twenty one on saturday and I had a piece of chocolate mousse cake! I was really proud of myself. I’m pushing myself thanks to you. I’m for sure getting a t-shirt. When ever I’m struggling I’ll wear it ❤️ take care lovely, thank you so much 💕
I‘m not anorexic but these videos still really help me with my mindset when it comes to food. I especially like to watch your videos while eating dessert, because I do tend to feel bad afterwards. Thank you so much for being an amazing human being!
I watched a video of yours a good few months ago and this video popped up on my feed and when I tell you, EVERYTHING about you is so much healthier and stronger in my eyes.
You’re so inspiring 💕 next challenge: have a pizza out 😉 I also made my own pizza the first time but honestly having one at a restaurant made in a pizza oven tastes waaaaay better
i've been in recovery for about as long as you have and you're like one of the biggest reasons why i started recovery. you have been motivating me throughout my whole recovery process and i just couldn't thank you enough. it has been amazing to see you grow with me. sending you so much love from me. and i just wanted to say; props to your best friend, i love how she encourages you through this
I honestly adore you!🤍🍂 you are unbelievable. Just na idea that you could do a video with autumn foods- cinnamon rolls, pumpkin spice latte, chai muffins,.. yum!🍯
Ro I've been watching you even before I started my recovery , you make me so happy because its teared my family apart, I long for this normality one day and where I never have to talk about anorexia again. 💕💕
Do you think it be easier to face the foods if you stopped labeling them as fear foods? That almost gives them more power. Also, maybe try to just eat the food without delaying or discussing it first? I'm just trying to offer advice from what worked for me. I found the slow one fear food a day process too slow and controlled. Once I threw out all the rules and labels, I found my fear foods went away surprisingly quickly
I would say it’s whatever works 😊 some people don’t acknowledge it and completely avoid it. So I see it from both sides. But I’m glad you found what works for you 💖
I’m only a couple weeks into recovery and I’ve been having a really tough time in, like I’m making no progress when it comes to weight gain and I’m still giving into restriction. But this video has inspired me to try and face fear foods which I’ve honestly not even considered before, so thank u sm for this :)
I have to say that… you look sooo much healthier and happier than just some month ago! I’m very proud of you and everyone else beating an eating disorder
Hey Ro, just wanted to say thank you for all that you do. You are one of my biggest role models and have really made me believe I can fight anorexia. I’m currently not doing very well, but refuse to let anorexia win and you’ve taught me that! I love you so much!
wanted to say a massive thankyou and an even bigger well done. i’m currently in hospital and seeing you thrive and do so well is such great encouragement !! you’ve came so far hun, absolutely smashing it
Pro tip for ur cheese toastie: butter the outside of ur read instead of the inside and then the outside of the brrad goes all crispy and it is BEAUTIFUL!!! Congrats thooo ur doing amazing
You’ve come such a long way i’m so proud of you. it’s always a delight to watch your videos. You are so true and inspiring you have no idea how much you have helped me and others in our recovery 💗💗 love you and take care of yourself
You absolutely SMASHED it!!! Amazing job!!! People really don’t understand how much courage and guts doing this actually takes. Always fun and emotionally helpful to watch you! ❤️👌
"Look at me beating anorexia" I got chills and started to cry. I didn't know how much I needed to see this. I am 25 years post being hospitalized and almost dying from anorexia. I didn't realize that I am still not completely free. I've come sooo far and I thought I was free but I think I still make rules for myself that I don't even realize!

watching this while eating my dinner because today was quite bad so my ED is rearing it's ugly head- i'm three weeks all-in recovery (as of tomorrow !!) and although it's so scary and incredibly difficult, you inspire me to keep going daily. i'm so proud of how far you've come, i can't wait to someday be there myself :-)
Im so so proud of u!
I've been following you since the first video and I just want to thank you for everything you did.
you actually saved me. like literally saved me. you made me belive it's possible. I'm from poland, so we dont have hospitals only for people with eds. I was in the mental hospital and we didn't have our phones or computers, but what we did have was a computer for everyone where we could watch youtube. I rewatched all of your videos and waited for every new one.
now I'm so so much better, I learned a lot and I can say now I'm strong. I never thought I will ever be as strong as u, but look at us!
like once again thank you beautiful, I love you
gosh i’m so so proud of you 🥺 this was so lovely to read, thank you x
Hi from Polnd ^^
Girl, I’ve been “recovered” for 10 years now and I just barely ate a donut for the first time in 14 years last month. Recovery is TOUGH and you get so used to living with fear foods that you’re just not conscious of them after a while. Loved this video!
"All food is good food" needs to be on a t shirt. You've smashed it 💙
My biggest struggle while recovering is not compensating and not thinking of the nutritional value of things. Im always thinking of eating the things that will keep me full for longer and when I eat something “extra” I immediately think of compensating. Your such an inspiration and a positive force in my recovery and life so I want to thank you for being so strong and sharing all of this.
31:12 minutes full of joy
thank you for uploading and helping me with my own Ed.
I am struggling really hard right now but seeing that you are able to eat and recover makes me think that I can too.
I am also really proud of you for facing your fear foods and btw you look amazing (not that you looked any less amazing before)
🌸💜
how lovely 🥺🥺 thank u
So proud of you and watched your journey from the beginning! It’s helped me so much watching this as I’m in my first month of recovery and most days find really hard as the meal plan has now increased to 3x meals 3x snacks but I’m doing it through all the tears, guilt and shame and aiming for that wonderful food freedom I’ve not had since my early teens(I’m now 53!) so you young ones are in the best place possible to start recovery now(I hope that doesn’t sound patronising!) I just mean there’s so much more help now than there used to be and don’t be like me and waste so many years in chains to a disorder that robs you of real life!
Well done Ro, you beautiful inspirational Queen! ♥️♥️
i missed you so much! in the time youve been gone, ive probably re watched every single one of your videos at least fifty times lol
that’s so sweet ah
Ohh girl, I have never seen you so beautiful and full of joy as in this video! It's so nice to see how far you have come and how you're glowing😍
thank you :)
you are such an inspiration, i’m currently making the decision to actively recover after hitting rock bottom - life is scary right now but hoping to follow in your footsteps 💓
you got this! best decision you’ll ever make x
All bad thoughts are just pure lies, you are stronger!
good luck you got this !
good luck you got this !
Your mums comment during your pizza diner, where she said she had been waiting for this moment for many years, made me cry😢. So proud of you! And this is going all in, you are showing us you're all in, all in doesn't mean you get a pizza on the first day of recovery. Doesn't matter that it took you some time, you are doing it now!
i've been following your journey since your second, maybe third video. even tho i don't know you as a person, i can still see how your mindset has changed and how stronger you are in overcoming your fears. it's a strange feeling, i haven't even spoken to you once in my entire life, but i feel sooo proud of you. i just-bxnajsksi
thank u!!!
“ALL FOOD IS GOOD FOOD “ Well said !!!!! life is about balance . You go girl !!!!!!!!!!
Hi Ro!! I actually don't have anorexia, but a binging problem and struggle with self-image a lot. I started a recovery journey two months ago with a nutritionist because I was having horrible anxiety due to my habits and also was 25 kilos over my healthy weight, lost my period and had horrible skin. I know is not the same as anorexia, but mentally and physically it can get pretty similar. I've been watching your videos for months now, they gave me determination and strength to tell my parents about it, and now, I'm on my 4 medical revision, happy to say I'm getting there!! My body feels completely different, I don't feel like collapsing anymore, people say my eyes are brighter too :) !! I stopped self-sabotaging. I relate so much to your videos, I feel like I'm not the only one getting over an ED, and is extremely comforting. Thank you so much, and I'm so happy you are doing so great, good for you!! Everyone that is struggling right now, you will get over this!!
miss girl, your skin looks INCREDIBLE.
thank you!! it’s madly clear for me rn hahah
from watching your first videos until now, you have come such a long way. You’re doing AMAZING. You’re glowing and you just look so alive and happy. I am just a stranger on the internet but I am very proud of you!!
Had a relapse and ended up in hospital last night but you always inspire me to keep trying. Wishing you the best always =)
Oh I'm so sorry sweetie xx I just know you will smash recovery and you will eventually be free 💖
Keep going! You can do this
@@hii2773 thank you so much!
@@linneasundstrom2629 thank you so much! ❣️
Sitting here munching on vegan choc chip cookies and drinking tea, smiling at the beautiful energy this video is radiating. So happy for you Ro.
I love the fact that I'm following along with your journey from the very start. You've become the beautiful person you are. You're Glowin, literally. You laugh again. It makes me so happy seeing you like this. I love you ro
What I love about your journey, and the progress you made throughout the videos, is that in every video your personality is more and more shining and present! I mean, in the beginning I was like wow, such a beautiful girl. And now I am like WOOOOOOOWWWWWWW she is sooooo sooo sooo amazing!
ahhh thank you!!
Ro you need to try a biscoff biscuit dipped in melted biscoff spread!!! Just melt the spread in the microwave but make sure to not to burn it :))
Sounds cool!
@@kenzie_2820 it's so good!
Brb melting biscoff spread! Will dip graham crackers with it.
@@daniellerau3465 yessssss!!! Or dip the biscoff biscuits are even better!
I love your dinnertime conversations with your parents so much. They sound calm, rational, supportive and empowering. Wonderful dialogues.
so so proud of you Ro🤍 you’re my biggest inspiration🤍
thanks angel
I’m not usually a person to comment on looks as a compliment, but I have to say your hair looks absolutely beautiful, it looks so thick!
These videos make me so emotional, as someone who has had a very up and down relationship with food for years they give me the reminders I sometimes need.
You’re an inspiration and I’m so happy for you that you’re gaining this freedom back for yourself
You probably won't believe me but I was just thinking about when you are going to upload. Love your video!!💛
Keep it up 😊
Same, I went on a binge (for lack of a better word) of her videos last night and then she uploaded!
This is so inspiring thank you so much. I suffer from an ed and I was on the brink of relapse tonight because i had a big dinner and the guilt came flooding back, but I went on youtube to try and distract myself and saw one of your videos. And I started watching more and now I'm crying a little, because you are so so brave and I am so proud of you and you inspire me every day to challenge myself more. Watching your recovery journey and to see you happier than before is amazing and I'm so happy for you! Go Ro
thank you SO much 🤍
everything has been tough recently but you're the reason i hold onto hope, ro. a million times thank you for doing what you do.
You are SO mentally strong, like seriously, you have forced yourself to face so many fears and you've just done it and wouldn't allow yourself to make excuses. I just can't comprehend how strong you are ❤️❤️
You are literally so brave. When I feel overwhelmed or I'm doing something difficult (not even food related, necessarily) your videos help me so much.
i remember the first time i had garlic bread in my recovery, its so sad that an illness could take flavours away from me that i always had enjoyed. when my anorexia started, it was my relying on another behaviour as i way trying to stop another, to cope.. so i totally get the "anorexia said i couldn't have it because it made me happy when i was younger". anyway, so so proud of you girl, you've been helping me since my day one, literally actually, i started my recovery around when your first video came out so you've been with me the whole time :) i CANNOT emphasise the amount of love i have for you, it makes me emotional thinking of the fact i don't actually personally know you x
one more thing, just thank you. thank you for everything, you have done so much for so many people Ro xxx
I literally cried watching you face every fear. I had a really tough day in the hospital and this is just what I needed today, thank you🥰
Throughout all of my recovery, your videos have been pushing me to carry on persevering. You are honestly the most genuinely amazing person Ro and I can't wait for you to reach 1 year! Recovery is hard, but I am so proud of how far you have come and can't wait to see the day you can say "I am fully recovered"
You are an inspiration to so many people, keep fighting 💗💗
thanks lovely 🤎
i love how supportive are your parents
Ro! You're glowing! Watching you overcome your fears and experience foods you haven't had in so long is inspiring. Your reactions are so genuine and sweet! It's like the first time tasting a new food all over again. Thank you for taking us on this journey with you
ro, i’m so insanely proud of you. i can’t even stress it enough. sometimes when i’m watching, i genuinely feel tears in my eyes because you’ve come SO FAR and you’re proving that it’s NOT impossible. watching your videos is what snapped me out of my own head and made me choose myself, made me choose recovery. you’ve kept me going even on my worst days. you’re truly an inspiration. thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
You’re so amazing Ro!! I’ve been unwell for ten years. I just turned twenty one on saturday and I had a piece of chocolate mousse cake! I was really proud of myself. I’m pushing myself thanks to you. I’m for sure getting a t-shirt. When ever I’m struggling I’ll wear it ❤️ take care lovely, thank you so much 💕
I‘m not anorexic but these videos still really help me with my mindset when it comes to food. I especially like to watch your videos while eating dessert, because I do tend to feel bad afterwards. Thank you so much for being an amazing human being!
ro before eating the donut: “i’m getting a bit flustered” *kettle noises*🫖
Pterodactyl noises
I watched a video of yours a good few months ago and this video popped up on my feed and when I tell you, EVERYTHING about you is so much healthier and stronger in my eyes.
You’re so inspiring 💕 next challenge: have a pizza out 😉 I also made my own pizza the first time but honestly having one at a restaurant made in a pizza oven tastes waaaaay better
i've been in recovery for about as long as you have and you're like one of the biggest reasons why i started recovery. you have been motivating me throughout my whole recovery process and i just couldn't thank you enough. it has been amazing to see you grow with me. sending you so much love from me. and i just wanted to say; props to your best friend, i love how she encourages you through this
I honestly adore you!🤍🍂 you are unbelievable. Just na idea that you could do a video with autumn foods- cinnamon rolls, pumpkin spice latte, chai muffins,.. yum!🍯
omg that would be amazeeee - thank you ❤️
Ro I've been watching you even before I started my recovery , you make me so happy because its teared my family apart, I long for this normality one day and where I never have to talk about anorexia again. 💕💕
you’ll get there 💓💓💗💖
@@RoMitchell AH I love uu
Do you think it be easier to face the foods if you stopped labeling them as fear foods? That almost gives them more power. Also, maybe try to just eat the food without delaying or discussing it first? I'm just trying to offer advice from what worked for me. I found the slow one fear food a day process too slow and controlled. Once I threw out all the rules and labels, I found my fear foods went away surprisingly quickly
I would say so (:
I would say it’s whatever works 😊 some people don’t acknowledge it and completely avoid it. So I see it from both sides. But I’m glad you found what works for you 💖
rooooo the way you talk to yourself now makes me want to cry!! cheering yourself on as you should!! how amazing is that 💫💫💫 ur a rockstar
You’re so beautiful and it has everything to do with the freedom you’ve been giving yourself. So proud of you ❤️
thanks 🤎
and the support from your family-- helping you rationalize your thoughts and cheering you on-- that's just incredible
I’m only a couple weeks into recovery and I’ve been having a really tough time in, like I’m making no progress when it comes to weight gain and I’m still giving into restriction. But this video has inspired me to try and face fear foods which I’ve honestly not even considered before, so thank u sm for this :)
i’m glad it’s helped :,) you got this lovely
Recovery really is so worth it! You got this!
I have to say that… you look sooo much healthier and happier than just some month ago! I’m very proud of you and everyone else beating an eating disorder
Alright, we know how good Ro is doing and that she is absolutely fabulous. But can we also talk about how cute her dog is?!! 😍😍
Hey Ro, just wanted to say thank you for all that you do. You are one of my biggest role models and have really made me believe I can fight anorexia. I’m currently not doing very well, but refuse to let anorexia win and you’ve taught me that! I love you so much!
i love you! keep going :)
You're amazing!!! I love watching you grow!!! You're doing great!
thanks so much! 🤎
